Any person or persons, partnership, firm, corporation, association, hospital, or other entity participating in the making of a report to a child welfare agency providing protective services or to an appropriate law enforcement authority will be immune from any civil or criminal liability provided such a report is made in good faith. 

Suspected child abuse is required to be reported by any person by law and must be reported notwithstanding that the reasonable cause to believe such abuse had occurred or is occurring is based in whole or in part upon any communication to that person which is otherwise made privileged or confidential by law.
